Updated Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Measures One of the company’s principal business objectives is to generate net income by earning a net interest spread on its investment portfolio, which is a function of interest income from its investment portfolio less financing, hedging and operating costs. Historically, the company has presented Core Earnings as a non-GAAP measure that is defined as Comprehensive Income, excluding realized and unrealized gains or losses on the aggregate portfolio, impairment losses, amortization of business combination intangible assets, servicing reserve expenses on MSR, certain upfront costs related to securitization transactions and restructuring charges. As historically defined, Core Earnings includes interest income or expense and premium income or loss on derivative instruments and servicing income, net of estimated amortization on MSR. The company believes this presentation of Core Earnings provides investors greater transparency into the company’s period-over-period financial performance and facilitates comparisons to peer mortgage REITs. Beginning with this reporting period, the company’s Core Earnings metrics will exclude the non-cash equity compensation expense associated with unvested restricted stock awards. The company believes this adjustment will provide a better reflection of the cash earnings power of the company. While non-cash equity compensation expense at times may be material, the company believes the removal of this expense from Core Earnings is appropriate because it is a non-cash expense that fluctuates quarterly based on the share price of the company’s common stock. In addition, all unvested shares of the restricted stock awards granted by the company will continue to be included in the diluted share amount used to calculate Core Earnings per common share, which reflects the dilution resulting from the existence of such unvested shares. When the company sets its dividend, management and its Board of Directors evaluate multiple factors, including near-term sustainability, Core Earnings, the ability to generate comprehensive and taxable income, and REIT compliance considerations as well as the ability to protect and grow book value per common share. Over time, dividends will be a reflection of the economic return of the business.

As defined, Core Earnings includes interest income or expense and premium income or loss on derivative instruments and servicing income, net of estimated amortization on MSR. Beginning with this reporting period, Core Earnings also excludes non-cash compensation expense related to restricted common stock, as the company believes this adjustment will provide a better reflection of the cash earnings power of the Company. We believe the presentation of Core Earnings provides investors greater transparency into the Company’s period-over-period financial performance and facilitates comparisons to peer REITs.
